THE PRESIDENTS POPULARITY
IN PHILADELPHIA.

The editor of the Philadelphia Inquirer
one of the leading republican papers of
the Union, says of Mr.. Cleveland, after
seeing him and hearing him speak:
"The portraits of him with which the
people were familiar, whether drawn by
pen or pencil. did not denote him truly.
There are Ene, noble lines Of intellectual.
ity and feeling in his face which the por-
traits have not given; he has Characters
tics of the head and heart which have not
been shown by the portraits. After see-
ing this mentally strong, bright man, it is
folly to say he has achieved his present
high position by mere accident, chance or
luck. He achieved it by the possession of
and use of remarkable abilities, and his
thought speech, manner, appearance ell
90 to prove it. His popularity in Phila-
delphia to-day is a thousand times greater
than it was a week ago: His praises are
in the mouths Of those of wisest censure,
of those opposed to him politically, whose
respect aud confidence he won during bis
brief visit here by the fine dignity and
courtesy of his manner. his strong.
6brous intelligence, his evident sincerity
ofHUrpose and patriotic spirit"

1t seems that an attempt was made to
burn a railroad bridge below Jonesboro,
on the 18th, the day the president passed
down to Memphis, and in front of the
presidents train. The pilot engine which
preceded Mr.. Cleyland's train, diScov-
cred the fire and extinguished it before
the distinguished tourists reached the
bridge. 1t was plainly seen that the tim
bers were set on fire from the underside,
and the cowardly work was done for no
other purpose than to cause wreck, and
doubtless to kill the president The coun-
try adjacent is being searched for the
miscreants by the authorities.

THE CONSPIRACY CASES.

Decision Rendered by Judge Pickett
i'm the City Court Against Railroad
superintendent OPdYke and wallace
The Cases Appealed.
Judge Pickett in the City court Saturday
gave his decision in the conspiracy cases of
Thomas F. Meaney against the railroad SUI
perintendents, William 81. Wallace of the
New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad
and Stacy B. Opdyke of the New Haven and
Northampton company. In his decision the
Judge said he was clearly of the opinion that
a conspiracy designed to hinder any man
from putting his labor on the market when,
where and for such compensation as he may
agree for is equally criminal with any con-
spiracy designed to hinder the sale of the
merchandise of any producer or dealer. and
is more disastrous in effect than any other
form of conspiracy, except that to take life.
To convict of such conspiracy cireumstantial
evidence is competent and may be conclu-
sive. 1t is sufficient if it is shown that the
parties had mutual understanding to the
common design and the part each was to
perform in the attainment thereof. The
court is satisfied that Wallace and Opdyke
had mutual understanding that man not
approved by one should not be employed by
the other. This was to all intents and pur-
poses boycott upon the individuals.
1t is with great regret that the court hnds
the accused guilty of the material allegations
charged in the complaint, whereupon it is
adjud ged that they pay fine of fifty dollars
each and the costs.
The bonds at appeal were fixed at 5000.
The cases were appealed to the Superior
court.

THE wALL1NGFoRD BRIBERY CASES.

The alleged bribery cases against George
E. Trask and Russell w. Wilcox were on
trial before Justice Bartholomew in Walling-
ford Saturday.
Gillette, a witness, and Chillingworth had
come to his office and that Gillette had made
a statement under oath which he wrote down
word for word After he had written down
what Gillette said he read the Statements to
him and then Gillette signed it. Mr.. Chill
lingworth, Mr.. Asher said, seemed rather
surprised at some of Gillette's statements
ALI that was sworn to was what Gillette
said.
When asked who paid for the affidavit Mr..
Asher said, "Chillingworth."
Mrs. Trask, wife of one of the accused,
testified that Constable Austin called at the
house of her husband a number of times
prior to April 10, and one time talked with
her alone. This was about a week before
April 10. He said that George M. Wallace's
Office adjoined the apartment and mentioned
for the witness not to talk too loud. Then
he said that he wished the witness would
talk with her husband, and get him to talk
with Wilcox, to see if he could get him to
give some money for Glover in regard to the
little shed in the rear of Wallace block. He
said that Glover had laid out some money
for travelling expenses and hotel bills, and
wanted to get some of it back. He then
asked for Trask and witness said he was at
the barn.
The witness understood that the note Civ
en- by her husband was to be nothing but a
blind to induce Wilcox to come down with
$50. According to the scheme Wilcox's $50
was to be given to Glover, and Austin was
TO give TrGsk the note after it had done duty
as blind.
George E. Trask, the accused, testified
that his object in assisting Sheriff Glover
and Roger S. Austin to get Wilcox to pay
the $50 was to shield his son Will, who had
started the story that Wilson had burned
the shed in the rear of Wallace block, worth
in the neighborhood of So. r. w. Wilcox,
one of the defendants, testified that the
Sweetland chuck works were worth $43, 600
1T the time of the fire and the stock quoted
at 112 in the market. Prosecutor Wallace
summed up for the State. Attorney Pigott
will make the principal speech for the de-
tense next week.
